An e-education collaboration model on the open source idea. The collaboration model

Based on the open source software model, successful and sophisticated software projects were realized. Part of the success stems from the power mobilized through the world wide collaboration of experts, leading to a decreasing complexity of problems and the sharing of workload in a straightforward manner. This idea forms the basis for a collaboration model for courseware constructors. The model discusses the dynamic network organization based on trust and the underlying technical and organizational framework for sharing pedagogical learning objects within a larger group of like-minded contributors.
